I think I’ve entered a short quiet period. I’m feeling more introspective and reflective.
Perhaps it’s the lunar phase. Maybe I’m extra guarded because Mercury is still in retrograde. Or perhaps it’s that post Samhain calm before the storm of the winter holidays.
It’s also because I’ve been extra sleepy lately.
My free time has been spent knitting and sewing winter Solstice gifts. I meditate and go for nature walks when I can. I’m thoughtfully choosing and preparing my food with extra care. I do so enjoy the seasonal offerings – especially the squash. So earthy and comforting!
There are a lot of changes happening right now – both in nature and my life. I will talk about them when the time is right. For now, I’m looking inward and enjoying some me-time.
Blessings to you during this new moon. May it bring you the quiet time you need.

Oh yes; lunar phase, Mercury retrograde & post Samhain – all of the above. New Moon in Scorpio – mystery, the Underworld & inner work time. When in the quiet peaceful darkness, it is a perfect time for meditation, contemplation & deciding if there is anything that needs to be let go in order to allow new things and creativity to enter in. Time to work on and put energy into or wishes & intentions. A beautiful New Moon blessing to you! 🙂
Quiet time…does that mean when I’m studying on the quiet floor of the library? Just kidding. Enjoy your “me-time!” That sounds lovely. 🙂
New Moon blessings,
